      Club career




      = GoiƔs

      =
      Born in Monte Alegre de GoiĆ”s, Douglas joined GoiĆ”s' youth setup in 2002, aged 12, and was promoted to the first-team in 2009, mainly as a backup to VĆ­tor. He made his professional ā€“ and SĆ©rie A ā€“ debut on 20 June 2009, coming on as a late substitute in a 2ā€“2 away draw against GrĆŖmio.
      Douglas was handed his first start on 15 July, in a 0ā€“2 home loss against AvaĆ­. He finished the campaign with 14 appearances (seven starts, 741 minutes of action), as his side finished ninth.
      In 2010, after Victor's departure to Palmeiras, Douglas became the club's first-choice, appearing in 24 matches but being relegated. He scored his first professional goal on 15 July 2011, netting the last of a 4ā€“1 home routing over VitĆ³ria for the SĆ©rie B championship.
      Douglas finished the season with 26 appearances, scoring five goals as the Esmeraldino finished in the 11th place.


      = SĆ£o Paulo

      =
      On 11 February 2012, Douglas signed a three-year deal with SĆ£o Paulo. However, he missed the whole Campeonato Paulista due to a pubalgia.
      Douglas made his debut for Tricolor on 6 June 2012, starting in a 0ā€“1 away loss against Internacional. He scored his first goal for the club on 14 October, netting the last of a 2ā€“0 home success against Figueirense. He was also a regular in the club's Copa Sudamericana winning campaign.
      Douglas featured regularly for the club in 2013, but faced fierce competition with new signing Paulo Miranda. The latter was later more used as a central defender, while the former also appeared as a central midfielder in some occasions.
      In 2014 Douglas was again challenged by another new face, Luis Ricardo. He was mainly a backup to the latter during the year's Campeonato Paulista, but later retained his place in the starting XI.


      = Barcelona

      =
      On 26 August 2014, Douglas agreed a five-year deal with La Liga club Barcelona for amount of ā‚¬4 million fee plus ā‚¬1.5 million in add-ons. He signed his contract with the Catalans three days later, being presented hours later.
      After being an unused substitute in BarƧa's 1ā€“0 home win against APOEL for the season's UEFA Champions League, Douglas made his debut on 24 September, starting and being booked in a 0ā€“0 draw at MĆ”laga. He was later criticized for his performance, and was demoted to third-choice right back behind Dani Alves and MartĆ­n Montoya, only being limited to appear in Copa del Rey.


      Loan deals


      On 26 August 2016, Barcelona and Sporting de GijĆ³n reached an agreement for the season-long loan of Douglas. He made his debut for the Asturians on 17 September in a 5ā€“0 loss at AtlĆ©tico Madrid, and scored his first goal in Spanish football on 4 December in a 3ā€“1 win against Osasuna at El MolinĆ³n. He totalled 23 appearances and three goals over the season, but Sporting were relegated.
      On 30 August 2017, Douglas joined Portuguese champions Benfica on a season-long loan deal.
      On 24 July 2018, Douglas was loaned once again, this time to Turkish side Sivasspor. His first goal for Sivasspor was in a SĆ¼per Lig match with Trabzonspor.


      = Beşiktaş

      =
      In 2019 Douglas left Barcelona for the Turkish club Beşiktaş.
